Not every home has access
to DSL or cable broadband internet access services. The costs of
setting up this technology throughout your country, to each home,are
in the billions of dollars.
Satellite gives almost everyone lightning-fast internet access.
Here’s how it works: The download of information from the internet
to your computer goes from the satellite direct to your PC. The
upload of information from your computer to the internet goes first
via an existing phone line to your current internet service provider
(ISP) and then is uploaded to the satellite. Regardless of where you live,
you should be able to get high-speed internet.
